Audi's solution to our CV problems are graphically illustrated here:

The crankcase is ventilated through both cylinder heads. The valve covers
incorporate a large settling space. This space acts as a gravity-type oil
separator. A fine oil separator is connected to the valve covers by means of
plastic hoses.
After the blow-by gas has passed through the fine oil separator, the gas flows
into the intake manifold downstream of the throttle valve.
Blow-by gas volume is dependent on engine load and RPM. The fine oil (“oil
spray”) is separated by means of a cyclone separator.
Piston ring flutter at very high engine RPMs and low engine load can result in a
very high gas-flow rate. etc., check it out.
Their PCV unit is an add on that you may improvise from.
